No of course not, I just see people on this site stating to use recycled NMC cells that are capable of burning down their house with one wrong move, then saying my videos are dangerous. I cover safety all the time, more so than any other channel I know. I do not understand why people are saying these things. I work very hard to make my videos, and people here on this site who do not understand batteries are trying to criticize me. It really makes me mad. And thank you. Just figured out the automated banning process and am using a VPN now. I just want to respond to people, and I hope they can provide evidence of when I did something dangerous. Or said something wrong. And yes, I see what you mean about the downvotes. I am very upset right now because I could argue every point made against me here. I also allow people to criticize whatever they wish on my forum, so it makes it hard on this site where I am instantly censored if I get downvotes. It is very frustrating.

Just a tip that while HN looks like reddit, it's not reddit. And deliberately so. E.g. you can't downvotes responses to your own comment. This to steer into a different type of conversation. I can't say I've fully internalized it, but it does make for much less shitposting compared to reddit. The downvotes i don't think are due to disagreement or even anger. I understand your frustration (especially since the critique is so unspecific), but i believe the downvotes don't mean what you think they mean, and it's not personal.

Instead of being 'seriously upset' you could ask yourself if posting this kind of stuff: https://www.mobile-solarpower.com/diy-beginner-friendly-solar-generator.html https://www.mobile-solarpower.com/diy-beginner-friendly-sola... Is going to bolster your reputation as safety conscious or harm it, besides your general attitude in this thread. You are quite clearly advising people to copy this design, you make money of them doing so. Even a one-off should be better designed, let alone something intended for duplication. I had you down as well meaning but a bit out of your depth at times, let's just say that that didn't improve based on the interaction here and your various comments.

  That's a functional system that is 100% safe. There is no battery inside either, and I am using surface mount components that are recommended to be used on wood. It's a great little box. What's your problem with it?
